33. Mr. HIGHAM

asked the President of the Local Government Board whether the regulations in regard to uncertified deaths recently issued by the Registrar-General, with the approval of the Board, have not been issued in the manner provided for in Sections 44 and 48 of the Registration Act, 1874; and whether he proposes to withdraw the regulations?
